I didn't really have any symptoms until last night when I was sick 4 times! Feeling nauseous still... It's a bit early for this at 5 weeks - is it normal to have MS so regularly in one night? I'm hoping this doesn't happen every day!

Ginger panda I'm keeping everything crossed for you x

Broke out the doppler today. I was able to find bub It was pretty faint, but it was 122-125 per min. Super sweet to hear

Wow that's so early! WhAt Doppler do you Have?
I'm going to buy one, your must be good!

Does anyone else keep getting really shakey if they don't eat regularly?

Does anyone else keep getting really shakey if they don't eat regularly?

YES! Shaky and faint, as well as nauseated. My blood pressure has plummeted over the last couple of weeks (it wasn't high to start with!), and I think that's part of it for me, but I definitely feel any lack of food a lot more, even though I don't want to eat much.

Ive been feeling really faint but read up its all to do with the hormones and getting low blood pressure with all this progesterone!

WOW on the Doppler thats amazing finding LO so early your so lucky

Any one else still cramping? I still am and it freaks me out. I haven't really been nauseas either. I am still somewhat sleepy. Just get nervous because most of u have MS by now.

5 weeks today! Only 35 to go

jmandrews-- I know I'm a couple weeks behind you, but still no MS here. I get crampy first thing in the morning or right after peeing. I think it's everything readjusting.

I cramped aloe yesterday on and off. It freaked me out. No blood tho. Also no MS for me yet, just food aversions and craving... It's 9am and I want some Italian dressing with bread yum

I was cramping a bunch last night JM. Had me a bit freaked out to be honest. And no MS or nausea at all over here. I am 5 weeks 2 or 3 days.

 

[jmandrews]

Thanks ladies! Makes me feel a little better knowing I'm not alone and that it's normal. I was cramping last night and it's pretty bad right now. I peed already and I ate some breakfast. I hope it disappears soon.

 

[cntrygrl]

I've been having pain in my tailbone area. I twisted wrong to get my laptop the other day and have been paying for it ever since.

 

[snowflakes120]

Drink lots of water too JM and relax. I know they say dehydration can cause cramps. I downed a huge glass of water when I awoke with cramps and woke up cotton mouth so I think I'm slightly dehydrated but the cramps are gone.

 

[CharlieKeys]

Cramping here too Hun. I find if I've not drunk enough water it is worse than if I make sure I'm drinking regularly.

As for the shakes ... Is it a sign of low blood pressure then? Same though even though I'm not hungry if i don't eat then get really shakey and 'weak'

 

[kel21]

7 weeks today!

 

[jmandrews]

Thanks that is a good point! I'll try to drink more.

 

[whigfield]

Not everyone gets MS!

 

[ToughhGal]

Dont feel bad jm, my sore boobs are definitely disappearing, and I had back pain last night. I took another FRER which was darker but still not feeling hopeful anymore..

 

[staceymxxx]

I've had a cold for weeks now and generally run down... tired and feel sick on and off, lower back ache and thats it... if i hadn't taken a million tests, had bloods done and a scan i wouldn't think i was pregnant i'd just think i was poorly x

 

[KylasBaby]

Damn pregnancy hormones! The movie Brave just had me balling like a baby!
